# Activity Log

## 📄 What is the activity log ?

The survey activity log will track all the action events on your survey, at what time and by whom they were triggered. Not only does it allow you to have a full editing history of your forms but it also allows you to to log data from [security items](/form-management/security/security-items.md) with logging option enabled to log for example failed access attempts to your forms.

By default the activity log data will be stored in the ngSurvey database but its also possible to forward the activities to a [third party logging system](/installation-setup/installation/monitoring-and-logging.md).

Using the activity log header you can filter its output events by date or type.
